[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Parents who do not send their kids to Hardy won't send their kids to the NW charter middle school either. Charters won't have neighborhood preferences. The lottery mechanism will skew the school student body towards a larger OOB population more than Hardy's. Applications from OOB will be huge, due to parents perception of NW as a safer area. The final result will be just an additional traffic source for an area of the city already badly affected by school-induced traffic from nearby areas and from Virginia and Maryland dropping their kids to the DC private schools.

This is just political propaganda by Stephanie Lilley, Ward 3 candidate to the School Board of Education, and strong proponent of the privatization and charterisation of the DC school system. Good luck with her. [/quote]

I don't know about her but one candidate I will definitely not be voting for is Tricia Braun.  She decilined to send her own child to Hardy.  However, while a member on the boundary committee she decided that Hardy should be good enough for other Ward 3 families being moved out of Deal who, unlike Ms Braun, may not have private school as an available option. Talk about being clueless, arrogant and hypocritical.
